New Come and Sing event now on sale! Mendelssohn’s Elijah at the Royal Festival Hall.

We are very pleased to announce an additional date in our 2014-15 season – a Come and Sing day on Saturday 4 April with David Hill and members of The Bach Choir at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall.

Following the format of our regular Come and Sing events, the day will begin at 11am and continue until 4.30pm, when there will be a short break before a performance at 5pm. Rehearse and perform Mendelssohn’s Elijah on the stage of Royal Festival Hall itself, under the direction of one of the country’s leading conductors and choir trainers, and accompanied by Philip Scriven on the organ.

All confident singers who can read music are welcome. We’re using the Novello edition; singers can either bring their own score or it is possible to hire a copy at a cost of £3.50.

Admission for singers is just £12 and entry to the performance at 5pm is free of charge.
